He couldn't help but feel guilty and worried. Could it be that his own children and women were also waiting for this day and thinking the same thing? He didn't want to be alone and become a joke in the eyes of others.

"The people in Chen Huihui's family are no good. No one stepped forward to take care of the matter at the beginning. They even regarded selling their own wife as a skill and showed it off everywhere."

"Not entirely. Chen Huihui's two sisters-in-law don't associate with Chen Huihui's wife. They think it's too embarrassing and makes them lose face."

"Sister-in-law is sister-in-law, but the relationship between Chen Huihui and his brothers is very good. I heard Chen Huihui's eldest brother say something before. Anyway, as long as their family does not suffer any loss, it is fine. He has no right to interfere with other families."

"So, this branch's style is not good."

"That's right. If the family had a good reputation, it wouldn't have come to this point today. Look, today's incident has caused such a big fuss, but Chen Huihui's brother and other relatives didn't come out to interfere."

"What are you interfering with? It's not shameful enough. It's simply bringing shame to our ancestors. It's so embarrassing."

Xia Ran stood aside and listened to everyone's discussions, while the women in the village were not idle either, and took turns to practice their eloquence and curse.

These women also want to become stronger, they want to emulate Jianguo's wife. It is so fulfilling to make others speechless.

This scene was quite reminiscent of the struggle against landlords. Xia Ran persisted until Chen Ping and her two daughters had completed the household registration transfer and taken away all the food and daily necessities before she called back and returned home.

From beginning to end, none of Chen Huihui's relatives dared to come out to stop it or to make peace. Each one hid farther away than the other. They were completely disgraced today and officially hated Chen Huihui's family.

Even though they didn't like this kind of behavior before, they didn't bother with it because they believed less trouble is worse than more trouble. But today, they followed suit and lost all their dignity.

What will they do when they go out next time? They feel like they can’t stand up straight after what happened today, and they always feel inferior.

Xia Ran didn't care about that. When they returned to the village, everyone gathered around Xia Ran's house for a long time and didn't leave. They all wanted to say a few more words to Xia Ran. They treated Xia Ran as an idol.

Aunt Six took Chen Pingzi and his mother to the small house in her orchard and settled them there, with the help of some enthusiastic women in the village.

Everyone worked together to clean up and re-make the kang. The house was small and barely big enough for one person to sleep.

Fortunately, there is a coal stall in the village about 20 meters away, and people live there, so they can take care of each other. If something really happens, they can shout and each other can hear them. There is no problem with safety, so they can just get through the winter first.

The only thing to guard against is harassment from Chen Xiaoshan. There is no rush for this, so we can only take it one step at a time.

Xia Ran went back to the store and took out some pagoda candies, motherwort, and hawthorn pills. She distributed some to everyone and asked them to take them home for their children to eat.

If there are no children at home, then give it away. Then they sent everyone away, and everyone left happily, saying that they would take better care of the mother and her two children in the future.

Xia Ran had some cold and cough medicine in her hand, but she didn't dare to give it to anyone casually, in case something unexpected happened during the taking, or if there was any problem with the taking, it would be bad.

The vinegar-making aunt brought the vinegar that Xia Ran wanted on a cart.

After Xia Ran cleaned up and checked the house, she put some firewood into the space and planned to leave. Unexpectedly, the family who bought her donkey came over to repay the money.

The sister-in-law of that family said, "I will pay you back as soon as I have the money. I am afraid that if I don't pay you back quickly, you will spend the money easily. Fortunately, you harvest potatoes, vermicelli and cabbage. I planted a lot of these two this year, especially potatoes, which is a bumper harvest.

I made all the big potatoes into vermicelli. I thought I couldn't sell the rest, so I kept the bigger ones for my family and cooked the smaller ones to feed the pigs. I didn't expect to sell them all, and the price was quite good. Jian Guoguo, will you still harvest potatoes and vermicelli next year? If you do, I'll plant more?"

Xia Ran said directly without hesitation: "Harvest and plant."

Uncle Six came over and said that the family tree had been revised last night, overnight. Because the other relatives thought it was a good thing, they changed it on the spot in case there were any changes later. After all, it was a new member of their family, so there was no harm.

Xia Ran explained to her sixth uncle that she would not be able to come back during the Chinese New Year and would have to wait until after the New Year.

Logically, there is a new funeral in Xia Ran's family, and the ancestors should be worshipped at Xia Ran's home during the Spring Festival this year, but she is not there, so let everyone make the arrangements when the time comes.

"Well, I will be responsible for paying the money. I will decide whether someone else will offer the incense on my behalf or my family will do it. Then let Shitou and the other kids keep an eye on it and burn incense from time to time. You can do whatever is convenient for you. I will leave the money to Gui Niang, and I will also leave the key. You can discuss it later."

"Okay, I see."

In the end, Xia Ran left all the picture books she had bought to Shi Tou and Jing, and left on Chen Qianjin's tractor, pulling the box of bees and honey, vinegar, and some of the family's food.

There has been no one at home for a long time, and it is not safe to keep so much food. It would be better to take it away and sell it directly.

This time she also held Wangcai in her arms. Her space can now be used to grow things, so she can put Wangcai in the space. She tried it secretly and found that it worked.

He returned to the small courtyard in the county town, saw Chen Qianjin off, and put all the things into the space, including Wangcai.

He put out some more cloth and clothes and carried them to the stall, and gave Gui Niang instructions.

Xia Ran left the credit union passbook she had originally opened to Gui Niang, and asked Gui Niang to deposit the proceeds from the goods directly into this passbook. This money was just enough to buy bricks and materials after the New Year.

Xia Ran discussed with Gui Niang about the donkey at home and decided that the donkey should be raised directly by Gui Niang. Gui Niang was responsible for the fodder and the manure belonged to Gui Niang's family. The donkey usually stayed at Gui Niang's home and worked for their family.

We’ll see what to do later.

By the way, he left some medicine for Gui Niang. "The dosage is listed on it. Be sure to read the instructions before taking it. Don't take it blindly. If you are not sure how much to take, ask the village doctor. He will definitely know. Don't be bothered. Safety comes first. The amount I left is large. If the children in the village need it, I will give them two or three meals. Analgin and headache powder both have side effects, so take less."

Finally, I bought various pots and pans and bowls and chopsticks on the street and put them in the space. I took a roast chicken to the old man's house and returned the key to the courtyard to him.
